Cats provide many benefits to human, both in a psychological and physiological way. On the other hand, felines are living longer when they choose or can live with humans. This symbiotic relationship between their brains, lifestyles or world perception and ours is analysed in this paper. Their senses and capacity of perceiving the external world is different from ours which might enable them to understand reality differently or to attend and perceive certain important stimuli we do not. Alternatively our evolutionarily younger prefrontal cortex is able to organize, plan and schedule the time and that might give them good reasons to find a place with us. The consideration leading toward coexistence with cats was collected by a questionnaire data collection in the South of Spain, region of Andalusian. We found women are more likely to adopt cats and even to integrate them as a member of the family. Also we detect cats are able to learn from us, with a different meaning of the word obedience. Data obtained are discussed and suggestions are made for further research in this field toward a wider education on cat cares based on scientific studies. A better understanding of mammalian ecosystems has a crucial role, where women and their comprehension of integrative cares and flexibility in learning with willpower and not fear. Human and cat lives are autonomously synchronized, meaning their lives intersect and complement each other in daily routines, behaviours patterns, or emotional well-being but with clear boundaries of mutual time, space and respect.
